1905
The deep sympathy of the class is extended to Mrs. Lafayette Chamberlin arid her daughters in the passing of Lafayette. His death came as a great shock to us who had the pleasure of seeing him in apparent good health and the best of spirits at the Five Classes Dinner in Boston on May 11, 1945. An obituary appears ill the In Memoriam section of this issue of the MAGAZINE.
In addition to the '05 men who were bearers, Fred Chase, Allen Smith, Midge Reid, W. E. Chamberlain, Dr. Sam Wilkins and Cliff Pierce represented the class at the funeral.
Sliver Hatch, our efficient class agent, writes that the members of '05 have done well in their subscriptions to the Alumni Fund for 1945- A. Newick's new address is 89 Catlin Avenue, Rumford 16, Rhode Island.
Howard D. (Varsity) Billman is now resident at Tennant, Siskinen County, Calif., where he is principal of the High School, and Mrs. Billman is a teacher. Varsity, ever a loyal Dartmouth man, will appreciate getting letters from his classmates.
Bourne Wood, secretary of the Middleborough (Mass.), Kiwanis Club, reports that Ned Estes, head of the Music Department of Roberts College in Stamboul, gave a very interesting address before that group on June 18, 1945-
Ned is to be in Concord, N. H., later this month as the guest of his close friend, Herbert W. Rainie '06. It is hoped that he will speak before the Concord Kiwanis Club. "Verb sap" to Rotarians and Kiwanians around Boston.
Readers of the MAGAZINE for last October will recall the very interesting correspondence between President Hopkins and Carl B. Hess.
At that time, Josephine Harriman Smith, daughter of Harry T. and Mrs. Smith of 51 East Elm St., Chicago, was instrumental in having the letters read and discussed rather generally by many at Northwestern, both professors and students. Miss Josephine received her Bachelor of Science degree at Northwestern in June 1945. Since graduation she has taken a position in social case work. The fact that she was sufficiently interested to circulate and discuss the material in these letters, which were penetrating and challenging, is an indication of her mental maturity. She has profited from her work at Northwestern. Congratula- tions to Miss Josephine on her completion of college work.
Henry Hobart was an interested listener at the lecture on War Art, given by Paul Sample '20, Artist in Residence at Dartmouth, before members of Casque and Gauntlet in April at the New York Dartmouth Club.
Congratulations to Shirley B. Cunningham, Chairman of the Finance and Tickets Com- mittee for the Dartmouth Dinner at the Hotel Pennsylvania in New York, on turning in a profit of nearly $100. Shirley recently had din- ner with Royal Parkinson, in New York. All '05 men agree with Shirley in his judgment, "Roy always typifies to me the integrity and strength of New England."
Bill Knibbs, former president of the Dartmouth College Club of New York City, is a member of the committee on applications for associate membership in that active organization. Ed Redman '06 is the efficient club manager.
Congratulations to Sliver and Mrs. Hatch who, within the space of about two months, had three grandchildren: Elizabeth F. Little, born February 5, 1945; Craig Ames Parkin, born March 12; and Florence Anderson Hatch, born March 15. Long may the Hatch Clan flourish!
Secretary and Treasurer, 14 Holt St., Concord, N. H.
